| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, welcome to Relatable. Happy Friday. I hope everyone had a wonderful week. |
| 0:06.1 | Today we are going to talk about a topic that is pretty controversial, a pretty |
| 0:12.9 | sensitive subject I would say, and that is the subject of MLMs or multi-level marketing companies |
| 0:21.6 | or businesses. And what I think about them and how I think Christians should be approaching |
| 0:28.7 | this topic and approaching MLMs and engaging with MLMs. Like I said on Instagram, do not get |
| 0:36.6 | emptively offended by this. Please, whenever I talk about or whenever I say that I am going to |
| 0:42.8 | talk about a controversial topic, I always get messages saying, you know, please research this |
| 0:49.5 | or please make sure you know what you're talking about before you talk about it. Of course, I |
| 0:54.4 | always do my research before I talk about something. And my goal is always to bring you the truth |
| 1:00.8 | in love and to be as honest and to be as truthful and as gracious and as sensitive as I possibly |
| 1:09.6 | can be without sparing any fact or any side of it now. Am I perfect at that? Absolutely not. I'm |

| 1:28.8 | think and then again, how I think we should be looking at this from a Christian perspective. |
| 1:34.5 | Before I get into that, I do want to tell you guys about the CLT, the classic learning test. So |
| 1:42.8 | as you guys have heard me say the SAT and ACT are often thought of as simply inconvenient test |
| 1:49.4 | students have to give up a Saturday to take a few times, junior and senior year. The reality is |
| 1:55.6 | though that the SAT and the ACT are the two most powerful forces driving curriculum in the United |
| 2:01.8 | States today. You might not have known that because I didn't know that high stakes tests like the SAT |
| 2:07.7 | and the ACT drive instruction and curriculum. There is no question that the college board who |
| 2:14.2 | owns the SAT is a far left organization. Just last year the college board had students reading |
| 2:20.0 | Bernie Sanders's op eds on the SAT. So that's the ideology that they are going to be pushing. |
